Question 10 The hypotenuse of a right triangle is I m longer than the longer leg. The other leg is 7 m shorter than the longer leg. Determine the lengths of the three sides of the triangle. (3 marks)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the longer leg then x + 1 is the hypotenuse and x - 7 the shorter leg

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + (x - 7)² = (x + 1)² ← expand using FOIL

x² + x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1

2x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides )

x² - 16x + 48 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 4)(x - 12) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

x = 4 , then x - 7 = 4 - 7 = - 3 ← not possible

x = 12, then x - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5 and x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

The lengths of the 3 sides are

longer leg = 12 m , shorter leg = 5 m and hypotenuse = 13 m

-8a-5=-7a+3 help someone

Answers

Answer: a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-8a - 5 = -7a + 3

Subtract 3 on both sides

-8a - 5 - 3 = -7a + 3 - 3

-8a - 8 = -7a

Add 8a on both sides

-8a - 8 + 8a = -7a + 8a

a = -8

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

Answer:

a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

-8a-5=-7a+3                    Add 5 to both sides.

- 8a = - 7a + 3 + 5           Combine

-8a = - 7a + 8                  Add 7a to both sides

-8a + 7a = 8                    Combine

-a = 8                              Multiply by - 1

a = - 8                          

When you get a weird number like this, you should check it.

LHS = -8(-8) - 5

LHS = 64 - 5

LHS = 59

RHS = -(7*-8) + 3

RHS = -(-56) + 3

RHS = 56 + 3

RHS = 59

So a = - 8 must be right.

Find the missing side length and angle of this triangle. I've attached the triangle.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic 30-60-90 triangle ratio is:

Side opposite to 30° angle is : x

Side opposite to 60° angle is : x √3

Side opposite to 90° angle is : 2x

From the diagram we learn that

x√3 = 10

[tex]x = \frac{10}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{10*\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{3}*\sqrt{3}}\\\\x=\frac{10\sqrt{3}}{3}= 5.77\\[/tex]

∠T = 30°, Side opposite to ∠T is AC = 5.77

∠A = 90°, side opposite to ∠A is TC = 2x = 2*5.77 = 11.54

Find the area of the regular polygon. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The central angle of a hexagon is 60 degrees. Drop a line from the center to the middle of the side marked 7.

Use the  tan of the angle so formed (which is 30 degrees)

Tan(30)= opposite / height (which is the line you just drew).

Tan(30) = 3.5 / h

Tan(30) = 0.5774

Tan(30) = 3.5 / h                multiply both sides by h

h*Tan(30) = 3.5                  Divide by tan30

h = 3.5 / Tan(30)

h = 3.5 / 0.5774

h = 6.062

Now from both ends of the given side, draw 2 lines to the center. Find the area of that triangle.

Area of 1 triangle = 1/2 * b * h

area of 1 triangle = 1/2 * 7 * 6.062

Area of 1 triangle = 21.2176

There are 6 such triangles so multiply that number by 6

Answer:  6 * 21.2176

Answers

I had answer this question for somebody it’s letter c so ( 3,4)

The equation of the circle whose center is (0, 0) and whose radius 5 is x² + y² = 25.

What is an equation of a circle?

A circle can be characterized by its center's location and its radius's length.

Let the center of the considered circle be at (h,k) coordinate.

Let the radius of the circle be 'r' units.

Then, the equation of that circle would be:

(x-a)²+(y-b)² = r²

Where (a, b) is the centre and 'r' is the radius

We have a circle with centre (0, 0) and radius of 5.

Now, Substituting these value into the equation form, we have

(x-0)²+(y-0)² = 5²

x² + y² = 25

Hence, the equation of the circle whose center is (0, 0) and whose radius 5 is x² + y² = 25.
